Why choose a colored detergent?
Recognizable?
- Just washed — and already you see fading in your favorite colored clothes.
- Stains don't disappear easily if you wash at low temperatures in an energy-efficient manner.
- Fabrics feel stiffer or less cared for after washing than before.
How this helps
- Mild surfactants lift away dirt without washing out dyes or damaging fibers.
- Cleans effectively at 20–40 °C without higher dosages or longer programs.
- Glycerine keeps fibers supple and prevents them from drying out — textiles stay soft.
Who is this detergent for?
- Clothes lovers: you invest in beautiful items and want them to still look like new after 20 washes.
- Energy-conscious households: you wash at low temperatures (20–30 °C) and still expect clean results.
- Parents with children: lots of colorful children's clothes that need to be washed daily without fading.
- Fragrance lovers: You appreciate a soft, lasting scent—not an overpowering synthetic perfume.

Instructions for use
- Shake before use — ingredients may settle.

- Hand wash: dissolve in water first before adding to textiles.

How does the formula work?
- Potassium soap (Potassium Oleate): dissolves grease and organic stains by emulsifying them — without harsh chemicals.
- Mild surfactants: Decyl Glucoside and Cocamidopropyl Betaine lift away dirt without leaching dyes or damaging fibers.
- Glycerine: keeps fibers supple and prevents textiles from drying out during the washing process.
- With consistent use at 20–30 °C: colours remain intense after 10–15 washes, energy-efficient without loss of quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the difference between Colorwave Essence and Sensitive Touch?
Colorwave is designed for colored fabrics with color protection. Sensitive Touch is for white laundry and contains optical brighteners that brighten whites. -
Can I use this on black clothes?
Yes, but for intensive black preservation a special dark wash (such as Midnight Dew) is more effective — it protects dark pigments better. -
Is it suitable for wool or silk?
No. For delicate fabrics, use a detergent specifically formulated for wool and silk with a lower pH and no surfactants. -
Why does my laundry smell less strong than expected?
The scent is subtle and natural. For a stronger scent, you can add an aroma booster or fabric softener (check compatibility). -
Does it work against specific stains like grass or tomato sauce?
For everyday stains, yes. For stubborn stains: first treat with a stain remover or a higher dosage (+10–20 ml). -
How do I know if my water is hard or soft?
Check your water supplier or use test strips. For hard water (> 14°dH): increase the dosage by 10–20 ml.
